TechCrunch Disrupt 2026’s Real World AI Stage features robots, automated factories, and extinct animals

TechCrunch 2 months ago 28

TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 is launching a new Real World AI Stage alongside its existing AI Stage to cover the intersection of AI with physical systems like autonomous hardware, robotics, and industrial applications. The event runs October 13–15 at San Francisco's Moscone West, featuring sessions on safety-critical AI deployment, edge computing, and scaling deep tech from prototype to production. The expansion reflects how AI has become so widespread that one stage can no longer contain its applications across defense, robotics, space hardware, and biological engineering.

FuVeX raises €3M to scale dual-use drone technology across Europe

Tech.eu 2 months ago 19

Spanish drone maker FuVeX raised €3 million to expand its dual-use aircraft business across Europe, combining unmanned systems with AI analytics for infrastructure inspection. The company has inspected over 36,000 kilometres of power lines in Spain and aims to cover 70% of the country's electricity distribution network by 2027. The capital will fund commercial expansion, manufacturing capacity increases, and R&D for defence and critical infrastructure applications.

The Sequence AI of the Week #908: You Need to Learn About Gemini Robotics

Substack 2 months ago 46

Apptronik's Apollo 2 robot, powered by Google's Gemini Robotics 2, can now walk and grasp objects in response to natural language instructions using a unified policy rather than separate subsystems. The key advance is that locomotion and manipulation emerge from the same learned model conditioned on language, rather than relying on hand-tuned controllers. This integration of walking and task execution within a single learned policy represents a shift in how robotic control systems are structured.
